caramelization we're here in Borough
Park on 14th Avenue near corner of 46th
Street and we're going to look at a few
buildings now that the previous
Lubavitch inevitabie I should get stuck
there every yachts was here 90 years ago
today you'd BAE's ello huh fresh paid
tests which was September 12 1929 that
have arrived in America to help yiddish
kite in america to help his brethren in
russia and to strengthen his own about
hasidim that were already in america and
the day he came here
buildings weren't here at the time until
rather a big house
which you could see on the video America
is knit and ik on that video that came
out merit is no different you could see
a big house and that evidence at the
second floor of the house and he's
looking down and there's also you could
see the amount of people towards the
towards the first floor and and the
building was located between
4513 14th Avenue and 1340 back between
25 11 14th Avenue which were on and
45:13 actually the building of crime was
listed as 45 15 the house of Rabbis
Simpson Robert Eliyahu Simpson was the
Habad Rove of the shul
but some aesthetic sure he initially
came to borrow Park in 1928 he was there
a robe at the time and Angela Babbage we
close at 41st which is the oldest rule
in Borough Park and then he decided to
open his own shoe actually Tim ascetic
and it was right here so today we have
this brick building here which by the
way in 1969 was bought by the scholar
Revis father rabbi bar of Pincus
Rabinowitz but since there but before
that this was a shoe it from 1929 to
1934 in 1934 there was a terrible fire
and there's pictures in the newspaper
about the fire and the although the
building stayed the inside was destroyed
miraculously all the children were saved
the seven Simpson children
and and and the shape of Taurus will
change which saving to have pictures of
all listen in my upcoming book it's a
family people
some of those will be
prosperity anyway going back to the this
building here's the basis today it was
it used to be known as the iPod control
building when I was growing up here in
Borough Park the day it's a school but
the the property goes till here and it
seems like it was a rezoning of the
property when the red when the House of
Representatives stood here in this house
the previous 11 said to my mother
ha Stephen a minecart o'clock shabbos
Parsons turbine 1929 and he also said
shoppers sleepless another Miami Takara
Vallejo the Mimer of which we don't have
currently but the first miner we do have
it is printing the same from my mother
and coverage paid test it was said in
this location 90 years ago the sharpest
part of it which was September 17th I
believe at the time there's another
historical shoe right up diagonally
across right there the corner shoe is
called the strategy shoe and that's a I
believe from 1916 and the world-famous
Cantor the costume yesterday Rosenblatt
was the Cantor there in 1928 and 29
subsequently to the crash the stock
market crash they couldn't pay him and
he went back to the Oh F zanuck shoe in
Harlem but he was there and I mentioned
that because indifferent about material
we see that he sank at their events and
it seems that there was some kind of
fondness between him and the previous
lab and the previous lab is considered
so it's just an interesting divine
providence gulf of blood is that agnya
course from rabbi Simpson's house and
sure in which the previous level without
the active forces
the fathers eschewed where you so the
Rosenblatt was the Cantor the cousin in
1929 when there ever came here so I
assumed that he went to see to that
because many many and I found him rabbis
came from all the Greater New York area
to visit that ever another interesting
point that I recently discovered is that
they fact after the fire they they
demolished the house and they it was was
all covered with grass and someone who
lived on this block of 26th we teach to
play here ball in 1947 with his friends
and he told me they saw we those
foundation a basement still was there
and they saw an entirely private room
I approve it's the monster 10th of a
mid-foot currently so it seems like that
rabbit Simpson had a mikvah built in
this shoe for himself and for the Rebbe
and other eating they wanted to use
amends with fur and possibly a woman
Smith I don't know and this is because
the the Thailand of that room was full
tiling first is just the bathroom being
tiled so the indication is that there
was a mikvah actually in this property
before they built this house on it and
what I think from all this we see and
understand this but here's one block his
father's issue with the for this his
role with the house of Gremory Simpson
just in one block and there's so much
history here another point I'd like you
to look at the control the camera the
big base out of school right across the
street the big building here base Yaakov
used to be a stable they used to be a
horse stable I'm told someone who
actually grew up here remembers that so
everything has changed for the better of
course but the fact is that this has
tremendous history here and for those
that are you know want to learn more
about it when it's study more about it I
highly encourage them to read the works
that I've written
continue to write about the history of
hologram and standing here today 90
years later is a milestone but everyone
be blessed and have a seam of a SEMA
clever a good commander may be written
inscribed for a year of health and
happiness and sustenance hopefully with
the coming of the Messiah
immediately we
